Help with motion sickness in VR application

Hello. I am creating a VR application that simulates a visual search task. People are required to "walk along" a linear path. The "walking" is simulated, rather than real walking. Meaning that the person is sitting down and only moves forward along the path with the controller. However, when I tested the experiment, it started to make me feel a little sick and I am not prone to motion sickness. I need help figuring out how to minimize this feeling as much as possible. Can you please give me any suggestion that you have? Thank you!!

    Hi miaCorinne 

    You can use teleport instead of walking. I don't think there's much you can do to avoid motion sickness in VR.

    It's something you have to get used to.

    Almost everyone gets sick the first time they walk, drive, or fly in VR.
